This week she’s been a bitch.
After an extremely summery Saturday –but very frustrating: I didn’t take into account the neap tides and i struggled to get a good wave where i was, while other places nearby were going off-, Sunday came with a sudden change of weather: bye bye 25ºC and sun and hello rain and on-shore winds; still, there were waves to be surfed early in the morning (another miss, damn!!).

It cleaned up a little bit by Wednesday afternoon, but being my wife’s birthday I went home after work. Some waves were scored by a friend at a place I haven’t surfed yet; good on him.
Thursday found me in Zarautz for the afternoon and I managed to score 3 ok waves. The tide, the wind and my stomach (way too full to feel comfortable when laying on top of a board) got the best of me.
Today the weather was back to spring: sunny and warmish. The waves were tiny but the webcam showed a 1'-2' shorebreak in town, and it looked fun. I gave it a go but I guess everybody else had the same thought. After 45 minutes I gave up trying to park and drove home.
Not being able to surf because there’s no surf I can take it. Not being able to surf because there’s no parking is a much harder pill to swallow.
Over & out.
